Not even Jules Verne could have imagined floating over Teotihuacan. Enjoy the majestic beauty of the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, seen from an almost virgin angle. Adventurous passengers will witnesses more than 2,000 years of history. Sail effortlessly through the sky, the envy of earthbound spectators wandering the pyramids. The panoramic view afforded by your lofty vantage point is nothing less than spectacular. Come join the adventure of hot air ballooning over the Pyramids of Teotihuacan year round!
The activity begins early in the morning when, after introductions and a short orientation, everyone will have a chance to participate in the inflation of the balloon, a magical experience. After a half hour, we’ll be ready for take off. The exhilarating first moment of having a balloon lift you off the ground is truly unforgettable. In this one hour flight, the itinerary of our journey is determined by where the wind takes us.
A 4 wheel drive vehicle will follow us at all times, communicating by radio. Upon landing, it will take us to the meeting point where we’ll have a wine celebration and receive flight certificates commemorating this once in a lifetime experience.
We’ll continue our tour up close and personal by heading to Teotihuacan where we’ll see the monumental Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, the Temple of Quetzalpapalotl and the Avenue of the Dead. Few cities in the world have been considered worthy of housing Gods who are accustomed to occupying loftier realms than those peopled by mere mortals. The most distinct symbols of the past generations and peoples who inhabited this site, just 50 kilometers northeast of Mexico City, are the archaeological remains of the city itself which show us just how they lived from day to day. Also notable are the myriad of fine pottery remnants found at Teotihuacan which are now exhibited around the world.
